Opa! Gyro Combo Recipe

Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Rice

   Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a pot, add the rice, 2 cups of water, salt, and a drizzle of olive oil. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15-20 minutes until the rice is cooked. Fluff with a fork and set aside.

2. 2

   Sauté Vegetables

   In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped green peppers, onions, and minced garlic. Sauté until the vegetables are tender, about 5-7 minutes. Add diced tomatoes and cook for another 5 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper.

3. 3

   Cook Optional Protein

   If using chicken or beef, add it to the skillet with the vegetables and cook until the meat is browned and cooked through, about 7-10 minutes.

4. 4

   Prepare Spinach

   In a separate pan, lightly sauté spinach with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.

5. 5

   Assemble the Dish

   On a plate, layer the spinach first, then add the rice pilaf. Top with the sautéed vegetables and meat (if using). Crumble feta cheese on top and drizzle with lemon juice before serving.
